Fostering technology-enhanced science learning in elementary schools is an ongoing challenge as young students are not always motivated to engage with science lessons. The use of technology, such as digital sensors and data recorders, has been found to result in higher engagement with science. However, the association between technology-enhanced…

This study presents an empirically validated serious game proposal to cope with the challenges of apathy and lack of security in freshmen studying accounting. A review of the literature on serious games in accounting education found a dearth of studies identifying the factors that promote their effectiveness. Therefore, this study first analyses…
